What is Process Essays (Examples)?

A process essay is fundamentally different from other types of academic writing assignments.  In fact, it is closer to technical writing than to other types of academic writing. That is because a process essay describes a process that leads to a specific outcome.  There are two approaches to the process essay.  The first approach is often referred to as a directional process essay and is the simpler of the two approaches; it describes the steps necessary to complete a task.  The second approach to the process essay does more than outline steps, it also analyzes or explains the steps involved in the process.  The wording of your assignment will be important when you are trying to determine which approach to take while writing your process essay.  

The introduction of your process essay needs to accomplish several things.  First, it needs to introduce the process you are going to describe, and give background information about that process, when such information is necessary.  Next, it needs to identify your audience.  Identifying your audience does not require actually saying the targeted audience for your essay, but, if your reader needs a certain educational, technical, or professional background to understand the essay, then the introduction provides a great opportunity for you to provide that material.

The body of the essay involves your actual descriptions of the process.  For simple directional process essays, the body of the essay involves a step-by-step description of each part of the process.  For analytical process essays, in addition to outlining the steps you might explain them to the reader or analyze whether the steps are necessary to the process and make the process more efficient, or should be eliminated or changed in order to maximize efficiency and performance.

Finally, the conclusion of your essay will reiterate what you hope to achieve with the process described in the essay.  If you have analyzed the process and found it lacking, the conclusion may also describe suggestions for further study or review.

Starting Point Carol Delaney\'s Dictum
I decided to observe two people communicating to one another. One happened to be Hispanic, the other Caucasian, but this is incidental to the essay. What was central was my endeavor of reliving Carol Delaney's dictum that language comes from what we experience and what we speak. Language is the end result of our personal experiences that makes us see the world/ our environment in a certain way. These perceptions then saturate our thoughts (since experience and cognition is linked) and comes out in our communication. Everything in the world from tree to desk to person is simply a symbol. It is just a ‘thing'. It is our experience that imbues it with certain deeper layers of meaning. And these can sometimes distort the ‘thing' totally. To elaborate: we have the flag of a country. It is just a rectangular cloth with a certain number of stripes and stars. Reducibly that is all it is. Yet, some stand on and burn this cloth, and others find that looking at it brings them to tears. It is the symbol that evokes certain reactions based on our experience. Language is the conveyor of that experience. To relive this, I watched two people communicating to one another and decided to see the phenomena in an antrhopolocial way.

External quality assurance functions in learning and development assessments
The assessor must underpin the assessment process with a regard for other participants and stakeholders that conveys and, in fact, manifests support of those individuals and organizations, and that also identifies strategies that result in development opportunities. The receipt of feedback form stakeholders and participants is important to the capacity building that results in improved practice of assessment functions. It is incumbent upon the assessor to conceive of ways to record and report the subtle but important observations that can be used to benefit the organization and its participants. The role, then, of the assessor extends to that of a consultant of sorts, given that the assessor has the perspective of an external entity and is thereby privy to a level of objectivity that might not otherwise be readily available to the organization. That this is a sensitive undertaking—akin to walking a tightrope—should be apparent. Yet, the assessor needs to strive to be comfortable with this manner of relating to the organization, as it has long-term benefits.
